Hi Everyone!

I'm not sure what everyone wants to know about me, but I guess I'll start with the basics. I became a follower of Christ at the age of 12 and was baptized when I was 20, about 8 years later. This was after I got my Awana Citation award. Somehow in all of the scripture memorization the importance of believer's baptism was never discussed.

*yawns* And yes, I'm actually a poet with about 4 poetry publications to my name, a record I am looking to expand on. I'm finishing up my last semester of my English B.A. as we speak. I play chess - am currently rated 1122 and am looking to expand on that. Other than that, my life is pretty quiet (1 Thessalonians 4:11).

As for why I'm here, I'm looking forward to some challenging theological discussion, as I'm looking to expand my thinking on that front, but I wouldn't say no to some fun. Who likes rock and metal? I dig me some Skillet and Red.

*returns fist bump* No worries. I’m not sure where poetry would belong on this forum or what poems the members of this forum would enjoy just yet, but I'll figure it out in time.


I am not well versed in theological categories at the moment, so for me, really anything goes.

I'm just plain flat looking forward to learning more theology, although I join many of my church-going peers in suffering from eschatological burnout. Meanwhile, as part of my ministry efforts I find myself frequently discussing LGTBQIA and marriage Scriptures with a group of hormone-addled teenagers, so something other than that would be welcome indeed.
